Default How to create a table decreasing over 150 days

Hi,
My wife has decided to stop smoking before her first grand child is born -
this gives us approximately 150 days. We thought a useful technique might be
to gradually reduce the number of cigaretts per day over that period.
Currently she smokes 20 per day and we would want to reduce this to 0 over
the 150 day period (whether this will be successful or not we don't know). I
thought it would be useful to have a table that we could hang on the note
board scheduling the number of cigaretts permitted each day - perhaps even a
chart showing the decrease.

I use Excel in its basic form quite a bit but this is beyond me. Could some
kind person explaine how I would go about creating a sheet that would
autopmatically calculate the daily quantities. Also it might be good if the
amount of days could be changed and also the starting number of cigaretts per
day.

Many thanks,
Neil
